A member asked:

Female estrogen level is 84 (postmenopausal range) but i have only missed a few periods in the last few months. i'm always regular. jan (missed) feb (per) mar (missed) april (per) may & june (missed). can i still be in premenopause? is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Menopause is defined as no periods for a year so you are still premenopausal and your estrogen level is not really postmenopausal (could you be confusing it with an FSH level?). Since your periods have become unpredictable you can be characterized as perimenopausal but we have no way to predict when menopause will actually occur. Hormone levels are not predictive.
